Mr. Perfect can mow his lawn efficiently, that is, he can mow his whole lawn in a continuous line from start to finish without having to go over an already mown part, as shown by the blue path below:
No matter how hard Mr. Mediocre tries, he can't mow his lawn (shown below) as efficiently as Mr. Perfect can. A friend suggests that Mr. Mediocre plant a shrub somewhere to change the layout of his yard.
Where should Mr. Mediocre plant the shrub so that he can mow his lawn efficiently?
